Notes

The next taping will be Thursday, December 6. They didn’t announce who the WWE Superstar guest will be.

Michael McGillicutty seems like he is now a face now.

I am still unsure of what the official name for Paige’s new finisher is. However, before the tapings start they always air a recap video of the last taping. I think I heard JR call the move the “Paige Turner”. I’m going to use that for its name, unless I find out it is called something else.

There was a hilarious moment where Jinder Mahal's old music hit and he stared to make his way out. Then it stopped, he smiled and moon walked back behind the curtain. Then the 3MB music hit and he made his "proper" entrance.

Still too many main roster guys. I don't see what the point in putting so many on this show is with 50+ unused talents in developmental. Matches like Primo & Epico vs The Usos for example don't do much for anyone.

I was there last night..I gotta say I prefer Big E over Ryback any day.

Oh and Johnny Curtis's new gimmick is horrible. I was facepalming so hard. I don't know what they are doing with him. Last month he came out in leather pants and was thrusting and practically humping the ring post...at least that was hot...his new gimmick is just weird

I like Corey but I think there are other wrestlers who should get a title shot before him

I'd lick his tattoos like an overexcited terrier, but his wrestling is nothing really special.

He is actually a solid talent, and his look is it's own right now for NXT. Even the name isn't that bad either. I actually think Corey Graves is one of the more solid names on the roster. He is a seasoned worker, and comes from a wrestling city. Pittsburgh has always loved Professional Wrestling, and I'm certain he remembers the Taker vs Foley HIAC match in which Taker threw Foley through the announcer's team table from over 20 feet high in the air. That all happened in Pittsburgh, and even if you weren't a wrestling fan you still heard about it on the local news because it was that big of a deal to see Foley just put his body on the line.

Graves has potential, and I think he will definitely make his name heard more often while in NXT. If the feud with Rollins is potentially there I would like to see it. Corey is a solid heel, and I think NXT needs a well rounded talent like him competing for the NXT title, and feuding with it's current champion. For now he needs to make a name for himself, and put himself out there for the fans to see. Creative needs to pitch something strong in terms of establishing his character. Perhaps beating the NXT champion with a steel chair?

IMO Graves is awesome, and I think he could end up getting a good thing going for him in WWE, he hasn't gotten much time yet, but from what I remember once he gets going he's a pretty good talent.

He just needs some time developing his character, I think for most part he teamed with Jake Carter, and currently is his first singles run in NXT, not to mention only his second apperance or something.

Also has one of the most badass sounding names on NXT right now, I mean if they coulnd't call him Sterling James Keenan then Corey Graves is just as acceptable.

Still too many main roster guys. I don't see what the point in putting so many on this show is with 50+ unused talents in developmental. Matches like Primo & Epico vs The Usos for example don't do much for anyone.

The main roster guys are there because we as fans know who they are and having them on the show is gonna draw much more attention than just having some of the guys on the NXT roster compete on the show. Some of the guys although signed for based on some judgement of potential are remarkably green and need alot of work so the show cant just revolve around these guys.

These guys are working shows off tv getting the experience they need whilst the main guys are ready or near ready (Ohno, Wyatt, Rollins and others) are getting showcased against guys who have been called up already.

Not only that, but the main roster guys are also helping the NXT guys buy competing with a higher calibre superstar and learning whatever they need to know in preparation for getting the call up.
